[PICS/VIDS] 12 Times Ed Sheeran Made Malaysians Wish His Show Would Never End
No fancy introductions were needed for good ol' talented Ed Sheeran, who made sure to give fans a great time at his maiden concert in Malaysia.
Ed Sheeran proved himself to be a man of pure talent when he played his first ever sold-out concert in Malaysia on Monday, 16 March at the KL Convention Centre
Armed with just his guitar, Ed may have cut a lone figure onstage but that did not stop him from delivering a solid one-and-a-half hour's worth of songs and entertainment for his Malaysian fans. Here are some of our favourite moments from the show:
1. When he urged the crowd to sing "until we lose our voices, me and you included" and boy, did they comply!
2. The heartwarming moment when the crowd sang along to every word of 'Thinking Out Loud'. Clips of the music video playing in the background was a nice touch too!
3. The near silence accompanying 'Give Me Love' gave us chills in a really good way. Better yet, Ed rallied the audience to harmonise for him nearing the end of the song!

4. To all you attached people out there, 'Tenerife Sea' is the song to serenade your sweethearts with on a quiet night in. Just listen to how beautiful it sounded live:
5. That magical moment when Ed had everyone take out their phones and enact an impromptu starlight show with their flashlights for 'A-Team'

7. ...before launching straight into 'I See Fire', where the crowd made up some words they didn't know and Smaug the Terrible made a cameo appearance
As Ed himself put it, "If you know the words to sing this song, sing along with me and if you don’t know the words, just make-up any of your own to sing along."

9. To be frank, we were a little worried about that guitar when Ed started hitting on it for the super energetic 'Bloodstream'

10. We totally did not expect Ed to launch into Iggy Azalea's 'Fancy' when he was showing off his rapping skills

11. All good things come to an end, and what better way to end a spectacular concert with the appropriately named 'Sing' so we could all sing our hearts and vocal cords out to?
